About AIA

The roots of today’s AIA Group can be traced to 1919 when entrepreneur Cornelius Vander Starr established his first insurance business in Shanghai, China. What followed was pioneering growth, securing AIA’s position as the largest independent publicly listed pan-Asian life insurance group—spanning 18 markets and serving the holders of more than 39 million individual policies and more than 16 million group scheme m¬embers. AIA is based in Hong Kong and is listed on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong under the stock code “1299” (ticker symbol: “AAGIY”).
